Short Acting Out Poems

Passion
Is not an act unto itself
But is
The inspiring factor that makes one act...

When pets start acting out of character
Different to their normal routine as their caregiver
Sends out a signal
You're in a pickle
A visit to the vet is definitely in the picture...

History always repeats.

This globe produces 
same story,

just different bodies 
acting out the play 
---

I write,
not to plead for the
always invisible change,

but to keep
myself sane....

Love her for her beautiful soul, her invisibility to others. Embrace her imperfections, reassuring her that you would never change them. Instead of habitually telling her I love you, try acting out your love though avid affection....

Guilty of acting out of high emotion
Not considering the repercussions 
Need space and time to think
Cause feelings aren’t facts
And there is no need to sink!
There is a process to go through
Awareness, acceptance, action
Helps to be true
To a way of living
That makes it possible for forgiving...

If any of of you ever give any bad news to me
about Anything, 
be it something you heard on the news or something you know personally,
I WILL DISMISS YOU FROM MY LIFE IMMEDIATELY!!!


.....don't be concerned about the above, seriously.
Again, I'm just acting out, being a very, very depressed big baby....

Dear mom, i just want to say I'm glad to be your son.
I just want to say you are my only one.
I just want to say sorry for acting out in school.
i just want to say sorry for making you look like a fool.
i just want to say thank you for being on my side no matter what i do.
i just want to say i love you....

In the land of glitz and glitter.
Visionaires film moving pictures.
Acting out their fantasies.
Through love ,war, or tragedy.

Who got hot between the sheets.
To rhapsody's elusive beat.
As a plot began to steam
Audacity, almost Obscene. 

Humors truth, alloyed themes.
Viewers rule, Android dreams.
Rumor sleuths, Tabloid screams.
Future jewels on a silver screen....

You are afraid of the sound of things changing
Arranging your life according to moments of time,
A mime acting out scenes of what others expect.

How can we dance
When you let circumstance
Become a trance,
And are unwilling to take a chance?

Come out from the cage you are clinging to and find freedom 
in the fullness of a future without bounds or sounds of things changing....

The outrage spills
sews evil seeds
reaps injustice
as innocence bleeds.

Misguided few
opinions flawed
fallacious minds
spurred by fraud.

Seek what's true
for better aim
this acting out
shall bring you shame!!





Violent destructive acts upon the property of others, (Tesla) for whatever reason, cannot be justified, you are a criminal and you should be severely punished!!...

There's no more pretending
or acting out parts.
There are just bitter endings
for two foolish hearts.
And, as I wade through
these half-written songs,
I can see the direction
we took all along.

The timing seemed perfect
for two willing hearts
to try and find comfort
and love of some sort.
We knew there was danger
in things that we tried, 
but time overtook
our love and it died....

An upside down book’s pages keep turning,
I’m playing dead in a theatre of war,
Luminance weaves into passion.

To sail away into fantasy, to the wraith of tonight.
A connection embraced only in repose,
As lost loves are left wandering the streets.

Acting out scenes to scripts never written,
For the sake of patience, I’ve turned my cheek.

As nearby strolls are of enough reward to ground my careless needs....

Aesthetic appreciations
Made available with respect,
Encouraging her to reset
Regrets, with a mediation.
Instead of a deviation,
Compliments, she can not reject,
Are offered without a regret,
Notating alleviations.
Beauty deserves to be noticed!
Envious others choose their views,
Acting out as if with no gist.
Uninhibited beauties, who
Treated right, eyes dry with no mist,
Yearn for a vision of love too....

I may post questionable poetry occassionally,
leaving many with the impression that I'm going crazy.
Some may think that I'm contemplating suicide
but I assure you all, that's an option never entertained by I.
I just struggle with constant bouts of deppression,
but I always manage to pull myself out of them.
So don't be concerned when you see this happen to me.
I'm just acting out and being a very depressed big baby....

the intention of my magic
is to get inside you and inside your mind
misinterpreted, i stand alone with some kind of drink dripping down my chin
a stop sign is thrown and breaks the light bulb above my head
the drawing board had to bought from a store of thrifty convenience
never had i had a streak that has gone so beautifully tragic
you are worth the weight in work and rejection as well as acting out the intention of my magic...

WHO WE ARE AT OUR CORE

Are we who we think we are
Or more likely what others think
Perhaps multifaceted, we may be
Or neither, always a mystery
Taking self-analysis to the brink
But in the end, just raise the bar

At our core, whatever that may be
Some sort of an inherent disposition
Or just acting out our genetic code
Delving deep to find the mother lode
When psychoanalysis is an imposition
Will anyone ever know the real me

Heavy eyes begin to shut as your adventure starts
Swept into a land where the desires of your heart
Magically appear, taking their hold on you
Echoing your wishes through a whispered tune
Leap and frolic, for this is your dream!
Turn thoughts into actions, swift and free!
If you so wish, I shall appear before you,
Acting out the many scenes you’re partial to
Just call my name and I’ll come from afar
Out of the night and into your arms....

How mesmerizing,
the flame that dances before my eyes
How entrancing,
as it flickers in
its provocative ways

So bright, so beautiful,
Yet so erotically evil
Consuming all that
gets in its way
How false that the
flame can be tame

A substance of life,
and keeper of death
Acting out its part in
the lives of all
Magical, helpful, yet
painfully deadly

How odd the flame is,
its characteristics frightfully
similar to those of... Love !...

.            Acting Out

Standing, lying, falling, crawling, I keep trying, crying, lying, rhyming, love is blinding
I play, obey, eat, -I digest, caress the softness, when I'm blinking, I'm found sinking 
I find myself thinking, walking, talking, mocking, craving, misbehaving, and dreaming
Shake, break, my heart can't take, I smile, in style, small thoughts, are all I got
I'm lazy, hazy, I get crazy, I shout, when in doubt, Acting Out, that's what I'm all about

Not a care in the world 
Nothing surfaced that day
Just a vision in my head twirled 
My actions left everyone with nothing to say

Pure shock with little value
Keep the change 
I’m half way through 
Two dozen valium

Ready to start the day 
Chapter...oh who knows?
Starring myself 
In this alcoholic play

Starting to wonder if I exist 
Its bliss I seek but pain I find
I focus my glare to tell the difference
But it’s hard to see through this alcoholic mist...

Mae mailed Christmas cards today, 
fewer again this year 
because death has made 

her address book a skeleton.
She has a son in Russia
but no other relatives alive

and every year more friends die.
Her memories are movies 
she always likes to watch.

Cary Grant may not be in them 
but the movies make her thankful 
for the people she has known 

even those who were a problem. 
Perhaps she gave them reason   
acting out in her distress.

Little hands once held promise
Now clenched in defiant fists
A childhood lost to darkness
Abuse and pain, forever etched

School halls turned to prison walls
Rebellion fueled by hidden pain
Acting out, a desperate call
For love, for help, in vain

Teen years marked by struggle
Anger, hurt, and shame
No guidance, no gentle hand
To heal the hidden scars

Now shackled, lost, and cold
A life forever changed
From innocence to chains
A childhood's fleeting range...

poor poe mustache trimmed method 
acting out blood and lace.

  masquerade guest wandering 
outside during the intermission.

  across the street on 14th and stark
 there will be wine.

brightly colored illuminated swords
 stopping traffic..


along the wall there are large oak barrells and
oversized plastic containers stained purple.

 all that is left from last season is a polished 
aluminum garage door full of square windows
that looks out into the night....

Do you think so, I will take you on!
No muscles, just moral gumption.
This is not wreck friendship junction!

Nice try, after my two act of kindness?
No reads, no soupmail, no email?
You are not thinking, acting out of moral blindness.

Sometimes our friends are enemies in masquerade.
Seeking so badly to destroy us?
Yes, tis too true, but too late to fuss.

I see them from the window ....
Laughing!
On The Wreck A Friendship Bus!
